In reply to the discussion: This 900-person delta cluster in Mass. has CDC freaked out--74% are vaccinated [View all]uponit7771
(93,532 posts)67. Delta is spreading among the vaccinated so if everyone was 100% vaxed Delta spread wouldn't stop
If Delta is NOT spreading among the vaccinated then those vulnerable to sever/critical/lethal exposure should take precautions.
Right now 190 million Americans have at lest one dose the 100 million left that can need to act like the 200 million who have.
Yes, fuck them if by now they're not doing what's needed when available.
